LANSING COMMUNITY COLLEGE
CURRICULAR GUIDE
Managerial Accounting
Associate in Business Degree
Curriculum Code: 0247 (Effective Fall 2001 - Summer 2006)
This program combines study in Accounting and Quality Assurance. Historically
these skills lead to jobs in manufacturing. Today, however, service,
merchandising, and governmental organizations are emphasizing cost and quality
control. There should be an increasing demand for graduates of this program
to assist management in budgeting, pricing, problem solving, statistical
analysis, and controlling costs and quality. Job titles might be quality
control auditor or cost accountant. Not all courses in this program transfer
to all colleges. Students planning to transfer should see an academic advisor
or counselor before enrolling in any course.
